Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1752: Chapter 1732:

Qhianqhian: ”...”

Di Jun looked at Qhianqhian and smiled, calmly handing the shovel in his hand to someone beside him, then walked over to Qhianqhian.

Qhianqhian smiled: ”I’ll have Shiliu roast for you later!”

”Deal.” Di Jun laughed heartily.

”Long Tu, don’t expend unnecessary physical or spiritual power. Stay in tip-top shape; we can hold on here.” Qhianqhian contemplated briefly, taking out two Purple Spirits. These were the only ones she had left, the rest were with her brother; she had thought about giving them to He Wenyu, but then, it would only keep He Wenyu from quitting, right?

After a moment of silence, she handed them to Di Jun beside her: ”You can use this, I’ve lent it to you.”

Di Jun was stunned as he looked at the item in his hand, Mental Spirit Stones?

Seeing a few who could still bear it sitting in their seats unmoving, Qhianqhian and Di Jun exchanged a glance, spiritual power surged forth, enveloping the space before them. Long Tu watched the pair, standing silently outside.

Helping would surely ease the situation, but backup power is undeniably required.

What if something unforeseen happens?

Most importantly, Ji Lei sat expressionless on the side, leaving them unable to gauge anything.

They could only hope Qhianqhian was right. But, there was a lingering feeling that even if they retained many, not everyone would make it to the end, right?

He Wenyu gritted her teeth as she looked at Qhianqhian. Even though most pressure had been blocked, some still affected them, but it was a vast improvement from earlier, making her realize the true meaning of needing strength to protect those she cares about.

”Everyone, eat quickly, don’t let Shiqi and Di Jun’s protection go to waste.”

He Wenyu busied herself with distributing food, not noticing the struggle of Di Jun and Qhianqhian, nor their strained expressions.

However, those standing by Qhianqhian and Di Jun and those seated opposite, who could still endure, noticed their incessant sweating and occasional lip-biting.

”I can hold on...”

”You idiot, hold on. Do you want to let Shiqi or Di Jun down?!” As soon as someone inside spoke, they were met with angry shouts from those outside.

”...I managed.” With that, everyone inside fell silent.

Because of this, those inside realized just how terrifying the pressure Di Jun and Qhianqhian were enduring.

”The pressure seems to be retreating?” Qhianqhian slowly perceived less strain, turning to Di Jun.

Di Jun glanced back, the people behind them had dwindled to half; the remaining stood within their protective circle, their eyes not as reddened.

He Wenyu stood beside Qhianqhian, smiling with tears: ”Thank you, Shiqi.” She took out a handkerchief to wipe Qhianqhian’s sweat.

And those who felt better brought out dishes of noodles for others to eat.

The Yellow Class was exceptionally peaceful until the pressure completely vanished, causing Qhianqhian and Di Jun to sway and topple to the side.

Yet, both were caught by someone, sparing them from the cold ground.

”Rest well, young one, why act tough?” People in the class glared at Qhianqhian with care.

While Ji Lei in approval nodded slightly; not giving up, not abandoning, it was indeed the first time the Yellow Class had no one quits.

Though few classes had such cohesion... It’s known not every class has someone like Shiliu fostering camaraderie, a class united over food truly surpassed expectations.

The Mystery Class quitting half of its people was still within normal range. After all, previous Yellow Classes lost two-thirds or even four-fifths. What’s with the current situation?

This Yellow Class was unlike any seen before, to be precise, this batch of students was extraordinary.

First, there was the unprecedented exiled group, followed by a foodie cohesion, and then a bond unwilling to abandon companions.

Yet, he couldn’t help but praise; first-round, Luo Shiqi was spot-on with key points. Certainly, having more remain was best, because next, numbers would be crucial.

The Heaven Class and Earth Class remained unaffected, having filled their stomachs in the cafeteria, gearing eagerly for the next evaluation.

Meanwhile, an old man awaited at the classroom door, nodding slightly in admiration; these two kids, indeed full of surprises.

But why hadn’t they prepared more food? He wanted some too...

”Vice Dean...” Ji Lei stood up nervously upon seeing the old man.

”No worries, you did well, they did well too.” As an Academy member, he knew Ji Lei wouldn’t divulge anything; this stemmed from the children’s intuition, their sixth sense.

”Yes.” Ji Lei breathed a sigh of relief; he was proud of the class but worried about rumors. Yet, if the Vice Dean was present, whispers would quickly be silenced.

Looking at them, especially Luo Shiliu brought a strong sense of pride, what a culinary master!

Meanwhile, He Wenyu focused on Qhianqhian, indifferent to others’ views; even if criticized, she paid them no mind.

”Make me some ice cream later.” Qhianqhian, with a pale face, managed a smile before entering cultivation, Di Jun did likewise, everyone guarded them, caring only for their wellbeing.

He Wenyu showed intense anxiety, silently praying.

As the jade in their hands crumbled into powder, their complexions improved significantly.

”Still a bit weak, here, use mine this time.” Di Jun handed a stone to Qhianqhian; though less exquisite, its abundant Spiritual Energy startled her.

”Recover swiftly, can’t do without you.” Di Jun attended to his own recovery then, leaving the class astonished.

No one expected this hidden affluent character; surely remarkable family status! To enter the Academy, one must have exceptional traits; without extraordinary talent or connections, a good family background is a must.

Several in the class fit this profile, but even wealthy families wouldn’t casually give a spatial storage device to a youngster, right?

Luo Shiliu might be seen as a privilege given two girls, special family treatment. Yet, Di Jun’s actions clearly declared his distinguished standing!
